Looking for a shonen-style light-hearted anime
I'd watch something that fit my preferences first, but if you have an amazing anime that's just a little off please share
Any stand alone movies that you think I'd like please share as well (seen all ghibli)

Thanks! Yeah different styles but I added a 3-4 to my watch list.
Still trying to fill out my list if anyone else has ideas

You sound like a giant fucking faggot.
>year 2000+
>-mecha
>cool fight scenes
>SAO
>Blue Exorcist
Go and watch Gunbuster, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Yu Yu Hakusho, Trigun or Berserk.
>inb4 old anime look ugly and mecha are stupid
You are the ugly stupid one, kill yourself.

I've seen ghost in the shell, evangelion, yuyu hakusho, and trigun
Just because it is not what I am currently looking to watch doesn't mean I don't like the genre or don't appreciate a good anime
Needless
Although the anime only ending was a let down there's always the manga to pick up afterwards

Thanks, read the synopsis and it looks interesting
You might enjoy DanMachi
S-cry-ed would be right your alley I think.
>26 episodes
>came out in 2001
>near-future fantasy setting, people with special powers fighting each other, government squads vs outlaws, etc
>red oni blue oni shounen dynamic with dual MCs
>not really gritty, but not campy either, just good old fashioned manly fighting
If you want something a little more generically battle shounen, then try Nanatsu no Taizai (Seven Deadly Sins).
>26 episodes
>2014
>Fantasy setting reminiscent of medieval Europe, MC and his band heroes protect a princess
>everyone is stupidly overpowered from the start, so no training arcs
>lots of fast action, not a whole lot of exposition or world building though, so stuff might seem rushed or ass-pully
